 Parent's Area : Curriculum

Dear Parents

I hope you will find this information useful.

It is important to us that you share as much as possible in the learning that your child takes part in at Bempton School.

As we are a small school, with mixed age classes, we work on a two year cycle of planning to ensure continuity, progression and coverage of all aspects of the National Curriculum.

The two year plans are referred to as Plan A and Plan B.  This year we are working within Plan B.

Your child's class teacher has prepared details of aspects to be studied this term.

At the start of each term, new information will be posted on this web page, outlining the curriculum for that term.

If you have any queries please feel free to contact us.

Yours sincerely,

Lynn O'Reilly

Headteacher
